Flatbreads are well-known worldwide, in all shapes and sizes. You'd be hard-pressed to find a culture that doesn't have its own variation on some type of flatbread. And there's a reason flatbreads are so popular. They're easy to prepare and cook (no oven required), and most importantly… they're incredibly delicious! This Turkish milk bread is enriched with dried yeast, which adds more flavor than traditional flatbread. The addition of milk to the dough makes it more pliable once baked. Enjoy it with a spread of hummus or soak up the juices of a rich curry. This flatbread is the perfect alternative to regular bread!
How to make Turkish milk bread
: To begin, mix the water, milk, dry yeast and sugar, and whisk to combine.
Add the flour and salt and use a spatula to mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Use your hands to knead the dough until smooth. Add the olive oil and knead again. Let the dough rest for at least an hour.
Use a dough scraper to divide the dough into six equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
Roll the dough balls and cook over medium-high heat until puffed and golden brown.
Brush each slice of bread with melted butter. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
